Maurice Clemmons Biography

Maurice Clemmons is one of the most popular and richest Murderer who was born on February 6, 1972 in North Little Rock, Arkansas, United States. Maurice Clemmons, born February 6, 1972 and died December 1, 2009 in Seattle. He was an American killer who was responsible for the murders of four Parkland police officers on November 29, 2009. Clemmons, who had been evading police for more than two days after the shooting, was finally shot and killed by Seattle police officers.

Clemmons was sentenced in 1990 to 108 years imprisonment for eight felony convictions he had committed in Arkansas as a teenager. Multiple sentences were used to create the total sentence, some concurrently and others consecutive. For breaking into the home of an Arkansas state trooper and stealing $6,700 worth of items including a gun, the largest sentence was received in 1990.

The decision was made over the objections of some victims and prosecutors involved in Clemmons’ previous cases but was supported by the bipartisan parole board and the trial court judge in Clemmons’ case. Mark Fraiser, an attorney who prosecuted early cases against Clemmons in Pulaski County, argued Clemmons was extremely likely to commit further acts of violence in the future, and said for a teen to receive such a lengthy prison sentence without committing a murder, “you’ve got to be a bad little dude”. On May 3, 2000, Huckabee commuted Clemmons’ 108-year sentence to 47 years, 5 months and 19 days, which made him eligible for parole that day. As a factor in his decision, Huckabee cited the unusually long sentence for Clemmons’ age at the time the crimes were committed. The Arkansas Parole Board unanimously approved Clemmons’ release on July 13, 2000, and he was set free on August 1, 2000.

In March 2001, Clemmons violated parole by committing aggravated robbery and theft again in Ouachita County. He was convicted on July 13, 2001 and sentenced to 10 years in prison. He faced charges of parole violations, but due to problems with the case, he was not served with the charges until 2004. His attorney argued the parole violation charges should be dropped because so much time had passed, and they were subsequently dismissed. Clemmons was granted parole on the robbery charges in 2004. He told the parole board he was “not ready” the first time he was released, but that he “doesn’t want to die in prison” and will “try to do the right thing”. Clemmons moved to Washington in 2004 while still on parole, which was approved by Arkansas authorities. That year, he married a woman named Nicole Smith, although The Seattle Times later reported the relationship had “been tumultuous”. He was placed under the supervision of the Washington State Department of Corrections and classified as “high risk to reoffend”. His supervision was to continue until October

2005. He lived in Tacoma, where he ran a landscaping and power-washing business out of his house. Over the next five years, Clemmons bought six houses, including one in Arkansas and five in Washington.

Clemmons was a convicted felon in Arkansas for five of his felony offenses and eight in Washington before he was involved in the shooting. Clemmons was 17 when he was first placed in prison. After serving 108 years of imprisonment, his burglary sentences were reduced by Governor Mike Huckabee in 2000 to 47 years. This made him eligible for parole immediately. In 2000, the Arkansas Parole Board unanimously approved his release. Clemmons was later arrested on additional charges and jailed multiple times. Clemmons was also charged with assaulting a policeman and raping an infant in the months before the Parkland shooting. He was released from jail one week before the Parkland shooting after posting a $150,000 bail.

Clemmons was told by a circuit judge that he had hurt his mother’s feelings during his sentencing. He responded, “I have also hurt my own heart.” Clemmons was sentenced to 35 years imprisonment in 1989 for robbing the woman at the Little Rock hotel bar. Six years was given for weapon possession, based on his high-school arrest. Eight years were served for burglary and theft. He was not eligible for parole until 2015 or later. He was initially held at Tucker Correctional Facility, Arkansas. However, he was later transferred to the Cummins Unit, near Grady.

Maurice Clemmons was born to Maurice Clemmons and Dorothy Mae Clemmons. His father, Maurice, made frames for automobile seats in a Chrysler factory. Dorothy Mae Clemmons worked in a nursing facility. Five of his siblings were born to him. Clemmons grew up in Marianna Arkansas and then moved to Little Rock when he was a teenager. Clemmons was a Hall High School junior when he was found with a.25 caliber pistol on school property. He claimed that he was carrying the gun to defend himself against being “beaten by dopers” and that he had “something for him” in case they attacked him again. Clemmons didn’t return to school and completed his education in the eleventh grade. Clemmons, then 17, and two accomplices robbed the victim in Little Rock’s parking lot. Clemmons claimed to have a gun in he pocket and threatened to shoot the woman if he didn’t give him his purse. She replied, “Well, why don’t you just shoot?” He punched her in the face and fled with the purse, which contained $16 as well as a credit card. Clemmons was sentenced to 35 years in prison by a court for the crime.

In 1999, after having served 10 years of his sentence, Clemmons filed a clemency appeal with Arkansas Governor Mike Huckabee.

During a court-ordered mental health evaluation, Clemmons told psychologists he had experienced hallucinations in May 2009 of “people drinking blood and people eating babies, and lawless on the streets, like people were cannibals”. He claimed the visions had since passed. He also claimed to have no faith in the American justice system and thought he was being “maliciously persecuted because I’m black and they believe the police”. The evaluation, completed by two psychologists from the Western State Hospital on October 19, concluded Clemmons was dangerous and presented an increased risk of future criminal acts. Pierce County Judge John McCarthy set bail for Clemmons’ assault charges at $40,000, considerably below the $100,000 prosecutors sought based on Clemmons’ history of violence. Pierce County Judge Thomas Felnagle set bail for the child-rape charges at $150,000, lower than the $200,000 sought by prosecutors, but higher than usual for the charges.
